Not a house side, but so hideous that it needs to be shared

Chocolate and Vanilla!

Make Subdivisions by Rush a neighborhood!

Exactly what I was thinking...A throne above and all it needs is a flap to release the excrement to the throngs below.

Yup, as mentioned already nothing's more soul sucking then a Boston Pizza, especially if it's patio is in a parking lot facing a Food Basics..Terrible food is just that added bonus..BP is pretty bad when it's a rung below Pizza Hut in the food chain (pun intended)..I think BP is on par with Pizza Pizza if Pizza Pizza were to have dine in, drinks and servers. At least Pizza Pizza knows that it's a pig and doesn't try to put lip stick on itself!

I agree. At least Cardboard Cardboard doesn't pretend to be anything that it is not. Pat Finelli ("Fresh", "Fresh") is gone, so we don't hear their annoying commercials as often. Cardboard Cardboard and Domintoes are the worst pizza chains (Along with those wretched 2 for 1 joints). Then comes Little Squeaser. Then Pizza Slut and Papa John's (I avoid the latter at all costs on account of his history as a Trumpeteer). I have noticed a new chain (Red Swan Pizza) which is pretty good.

FINALLY SOMEONE ON HERE THAT AGREES WITH ME ON THIS! Domino's sucks, the bane of ugly industrial strip-malls across the country!

Oof. The faux-Roman statues really complete it.

Is exhuberant bad taste/eccentricity "soul-sucking", or merely ugly? One ponders ...

Wow..... that’s something else right there.

Money definitely doesn’t buy taste.

It seriously looks like an old liquidation store in Coquitlam called the Bargain Castle.

Ditto, you see the sameness of that suburb is soul-sucking whilst the mafia villa is ugly. Reminds me of Princess Tower's in Kingston, Pizza Pizza (soul-sucking), PT (ugly).


Note Cardboard Cardboard peeking out in the corner, a soul-sucking display. Princess Towers on the other hand is hideous as hell!

I actually sorta like that, it isn't boring at least. It looks like what happens if a procedurally generated building in a computer simulation grows beyond its intended parameters and has to do a best guess of filling up the space.
